okay, this one’s for all of you complaining that having a black annabeth is ‘taking away representation’ from blonde white girls - hi! it’s me! a blonde, white girl pjo fan! hear me out here.
for a quick backstory - i got into pjo during a particularly bad school year, and reading pjo and seeing annabeth chase — a nerdy, smart, neurodivergent athletic badass girl who looked exactly like me, was an absolute godsend.
so, you ask, am i mad that they cast leah sava jeffries as annabeth?
no! absolutely the fuck not!
this casting does not stop me from appreciating and relating to annabeth chase, a nerdy badass adhd girl. but, more importantly:
listen. i’m not trying to say shit about things i know nothing about, but i do know this: some little black girl is gonna watch this show, and she’s gonna see annabeth, and she’s gonna be a nerdy, smart, neurodivergent athletic badass girl who looks exactly like her. a girl who’s never seen herself onscreen like that before, a girl who really, really needs to see herself like that. and in no world is that anything but a fucking fantastic thing.
in conclusion, white complaining pjo fans: get over yourselves. please.
and go, leah, go!

joker likes her smile.  he’d told her that and it’d made her sick -- the same way she feels when men on the street yell show us your tits or men at the bar back her into a corner.  it’s the way they all say it -- like she’s not a person,  like she’s something to be consumed. harleen had slammed her notepad on the desk and walked out ⸻ she hasn’t been back since.  thanks to crane,  she’s seen the tapes from his previous sessions;  he’s toyed with every single one of his therapists.  she had thought that he had been willing to take her seriously ⸻ that he had wanted to get better.  now,  she’s beginning to wonder if he doesn’t see her as a too-optimistic young doctor,  ripe for manipulating.  convince ms. quinzel he’s on the mend,  cry a little about how inhumane this institution is.  game,  set,  match : joker’s on the loose and harley’s being sentenced to five years in prison. fine.  if he wants to think of harleen as some sweet,  sympathetic blonde,  she’ll let him ⸻ if joker distracts himself enough trying to get to her,  maybe he won’t notice when she starts to get to him. 
Tumblr media
she’s sitting in @arkhampsychiatrist​‘s office once again,  flipping through the stack of handwritten notes from her sessions.  she’s too nervous to leave any electronic record of these meetings. “ he’s being a dick, ”  she mutters.  professionalism flew out the window the second crane started helping her break the rules.  “ i don’t know what happened.  he wanted to work with me before.  has somebody else been seeing him? ”

"going a little hard there, kit kat," they'd been watching her at the club for the last half hour - felt a bit like watching a trainwreck, or a descent into madness - felt familiar, like something they've seen time and time again. someone they've been, time and time again. but if they were concerned, viktor didn't show it. "feel like you're 'bout to hop on the counter and go all coyote ugly on us all - but what will good ol' jakey think? you all out here and alone?"

@deathmaiidens, walking in, he knew this wouldn't be an easy mark. hell, the house is as big as tommy's damn apartment building; rich people don't leave a home like this unprotected. he expected alarms, cameras, hell — even a guard dog. not even his worst jobs have prepared tommy for this. he's running for his life, clutching a grazed arm that's dampened his sleeve.
the yell of a MADMAN and the frenzied bark of a large dog ring clearly in his ears; tommy doesn't know how close the homeowner is, but he isn't taking any changes by stopping. the man ain't gonna stop at wounding tommy; he wants his head on a fucking platter. this bastard's thought ahead too — all the doors are locked, he's never seen anything like it. this place must be housing the hope fuckin' diamond with the system it's got.
it's looking like it may be the end for ol' tommy — say your prayers so you don't end up like the couple's seething yells GO TO HELL!! he nestles himself into a corner, hopes to god that the dark blankets him, when a figure catches tommy's attention from the corner of his eye. tomy curses automatically in a breathless gasp, though he slightly recovers when he recognizes the presence as a kid.
he presses his index finger to his lips, a silent plea to keep this secret between just the two of them.

WHO: @christinericci LOCATION: The Book Nook
One of the downsides of a small town was the limited options for purchasing new books. She could have ordered it somewhere online, but there was something about the coziness of a bookstore, running your fingers against the book's spine and pages, a satisfaction one couldn't get from buying online. Being in the Book Nook now that Adam was gone, though, it didn't feel quite the same.
She made her way down one of the aisles, browsing the titles within the self-help section. She tended to stick to fiction, but if there was any kind of advice she could find for how to get over heartbreak, she was sure it'd be here. As she turned the corner, she spotted a familiar face seated in the reading area by the unlit fireplace. "Hey," she greeted as she made her way over to Christine. "I haven't seen you in a while. Were you away on a business trip?" She motioned to the empty seat beside hers. "Can I sit or are you busy?"

Who: Penny @penrey Where: Maple Court
Jill was in a better mood than usual. It sounded impossible, considering that they were almost always in a good mood, but when there was a Jill there was a way. It had been a while since they got a chance to hang out with Penny.  Jill absolutely loved all of the Reynold kids so any quality time with them felt like time well spent.  Nine time out of ten, Penny would be the one to decide what they did or where they went whenever they hung out. This time? It was Jill’s turn and boy, were they excited. They had texted her to look out of her window and once she did, Jill cleared his throat.  “What light through yonder window breaks?” He lifted his palm up to read the rest of the words. Man, so much for practicing the lines.  “It is the East! And Penny...” another look “Penny is the sun!” Despite his lackluster delivery, Jill stood with his signature goofy grin. A bouquet of marigolds on one hand while the other pointed a thumb back at his truck. 
“Wanna go on a drive?”

     “ unnie, this is far too much. ” jinnie wasn’t one to complain, but upon noticing how many clothes deiji planned to buy for her, she had to protest. even if only meekly. her beloved leader had such a tendency to spoil her and while the redhead was grateful for it, she also didn’t feel worthy of it a lot of the time. the older woman had been taking care of her since the very beginning, and jinnie adored her for it. besides, she’d admit that it was a bit of an amusing sight — seeing one of their poor bodyguards ladled down with a stack of clothes of various colors as he followed behind them. she tried not to get distracted with a giggle as she looked at deiji with wide eyes. “ at least let me pay ? ”

incoming from @cxlxssal — "Why are you really here?"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"There's no need for animosity ; I mean you no harm." While she truly doubts someone of her stature intimidates him, there must be something about her that makes him wary to merit that response. "I simply heard around town that you provided ferry services out of Canalave and I thought I'd stop by to take a look."

For Crispin @heartrpped​ Closed starter Location: Coven headquarters
Tumblr media
SOME THINGS WERE touchy, subjects danced around, especially around the deaths and murders around Ashwick. Did it bother her? she was on the fence currently and while nyx was waiting for crispin, she could help but mess around the room of their quarters. she respected the dark arts, and relics, she just wished the coven could spice things up in here. turning her attention to crispin when she finally saw him in view “pick a place, I’m taking you out.”

Emma took a seat next to Logan. Of course she would find him in some bar with the less than stellar folks. She was already preparing for a lecture from him about how could she side with Doom, with Emma seeming indifferent if not passive to let Doom do as he pleased as she stood by and let it happen in front of all of her old friends. She just hoped the X-Men had more faith in her that after all of her mistakes and time with them, they they would know she was doing far more than that. Still, it didn’t stop some. “Why am I not surprised to find you in here?” She ran her index finger across the bar with slight disdain. “I’m sure you have a rousing speech consisting of curses and snarls prepared for me so please go ahead.”

this is a poster i made for my call to action assignment in humanities! it's a bunch of basic and easy stretches for people who sit and work at a desk all day (me)
the idea is that you'd put the poster up above ur desk and do the stretches every 30 minutes or so,, the whole routine won't take more than about 6 minutes to complete and when done regularly it can prevent wrist, shoulder, neck and back pain! :)
all these stretches can be done while sitting (although i HIGHLY recommend you stand up and move around while taking a break from working)
you can get a free digital copy of this poster here on my gumroad!
and you can order a print/poster here from my inprnt!

closed starter: @hauntcdvows !! location: the graveyard
Tumblr media
andy's magic had worn off, and the ghost was back in her phantom form, and whilst she was counting the days until she could touch the earth she had walked upon for only a brief period of time... she found herself reconnecting with her phantom-hood in a way she hadn't before. where the was once a beating heart now lied empty and dormant, and the blonde felt light as a feather without any bones or organs or gravity to hold her down... but as she floated above the graves, reading each name, wondering if any of them could speak to her phyllis couldn't help but feel sad. knowing what lied beneath the dirt, wondering who they were and what they experienced. how and who they loved. the graveyard had almost become a place of refuge, where she could quietly float amongst the dead and assure them she knew what it felt like — at least, she did now. looking up, phyllis noticed a man in the distance, seeming to be staring at her. phyllis's brows scrunched, and she narrowed her eyes to squint at him; he couldn't see her right ?? unless... unless he could see the dead but, phyllis hadn't met any humans that could do that. so, she said nothing, sinking beneath the headstone of a grave and begging the resting soul to keep her hidden from him— whoever he was.

@helbroth / loreon said " what he did was wrong. he should be punished . "
Tumblr media
" is it really that simple, my lord? very little exists from nothing." it's a simple question, but she knows that the answer is much more complex. like most things in this world. if a beggar steals some bread because he's starving, she does not blame the beggar for his hunger or his desperation. it's wrong to steal, but the larger crime is letting people go hungry. but lord and ladies rarely agree with her on that, and she finds it pointless to try to debate that particular point. " i of course don't doubt your decision, but isn't your curiosity about why greater than your desire for punishment? "

who: @lexiemillerx where: driftwood coffee shop
a little later than usual, will did his daily coffee run to driftwood for the clients currently staying at the bed and breakfast. it was a little service that the previous owner had done, something about keeping a good reputation with the locals and will had taken it upon himself to keep up tradition. "one americano, two espressos and a soy latte, please—" at the counter, will felt the sensation that he was being watched. his head turned instinctively and eyes fell on a familiar face. it took him a moment, eyes fixing on her face before he realised. "lexie?"
